2022 - 2023 Eligibility Requirements and Information
The scholarships are available to AHCU members who will attend school in the fall of 2023 or current students in an accredited college, university or trade school. If you are currently attending an accredited college, university or trade school, the funds will be available for your 2023 spring tuition.
If you're not an AHCU member, and are in our field of membership, and would like to apply for the scholarship, it's a breeze to become a member. It takes about 5 minutes to do it online (click here) and AHCU will make your first deposit of $10 into your new Savings Account. So there is no "out-of-pocket" money for you to apply. Underneath the boxes where you type in your name, there is a box that says "Are You Applying for a Scholarship?". Click on the drop down arrow and select "Yes". Upon a successful application, we will depost the first $10 into your Savings Account.
